Trifles are one of my favorite desserts.

They are creamy and layered with all sorts of good stuff. I can remember the first trifle I ever made after getting married. it was for Thanksgiving dinner and consisted of pumpkin pudding, gingerbread, and whipped cream. Boy oh boy was that dessert ever good! I’m really excited about making this Christmas trifle for my holiday dinner. I know that everyone will love it, especially me lol! I have so many desserts planned for this holiday season that I better get a head start on making them or I’ll be in the kitchen all night on Christmas Eve. Who am i kidding? I probably will be anyway 🙂

Have you ever made a holiday trifle? If so, how did it turn out and which flavors did you use? I would love to make some sort of red velvet trifle. I think that would be super good! You could use a red velvet trifle for Christmas or Valentine’s Day. How special! When it comes to dessert trifles you have so many options.

The layers just keep revealing more and more surprises! You see? Not only are trifles delicious but they are also fun! I really hope you enjoy this recipe for a Christmas trifle.

I love trifles. They look pretty in this trifle bowl and they’re very easy to make. My favorite trifle recipe was the one I used to help make as a kid. Grandma always used the freshest and biggest strawberries, the ones she bought fresh from her neighbor. It really made a huge difference compared to those packaged strawberries from the grocery store. She also made her very own whipped cream because she was never a fan of store-bought cream. Before she arranged the ingredients into the trifle bowl, she dipped the strawberries into this thick, glassy syrup, coating them until they were shiny like crystal fruits. I would always be one of the first ones to have a serving glass ready; that and a cute pout that would give me that first serving. Grandma’s weakness were her grandchildren’s puppy dog expressions.

Nowadays, there are a number of trifle recipes you can find anywhere. Most of them have been shared by people who experienced eating these treats as kids; recipes that have been passed from one generation to another. The most interesting trifle recipe that caught my eye lately is this one that combines the richest dessert ingredients—peanut butter, cream, and chocolates. Nothing can get richer than this.
